I wasn't thinking a client would post sui messages, but I can totally see a T monitoring a client's mood or looking for signs. Eg, client asking her friend to take care of her cat, giving away stuff, etc. Leading to overreaction by the T.
But a client shouldnt have to worry about their T looking them up, changing their habits and online preferences because of a therapist's need to look online. People may be ok with strangers seeing then in a bikini on FB, but totally creeped out by their T doing it after disclosing sexual feelings. It can ruin the safety of the therapy frame for the client.
People will have oersonal opinions on this, but I agree with the APA on this one.
